This dataset summarises stock assessment advice for quota fish stocks and
national shellfish stocks. These files contain data quantifying annual
recruitment, biomass, stock size, landings, catches, discards, industrial
bycatch, fishing pressure (fishing pressure mean, ranges, and estimated
pressure accountable to landings, discards and bycatch) and stock indicators
(Flim fisheries mortality that if exceeded would result in the stock falling
below Blim, Blim spawning stock Biomass at the limit reference point, Fpa
level of catches that if exceeded would result in the stock falling below Bpa,
Bpa spawning stock Biomass in relation to the precautionary approach, Fpa FMSY
Maximum sustainable yield, BMSY Maximum sustainable yield biomass trigger) for
various fish stocks (fish species in given ICES regions).

dataset
The UK_ICES_fish_stock_and_shellfish_stock_assessment_data_2017.csv is modified from the ICES
stock assessment database. Appended to this is the UK national shellfish stocks data, which were
taken from assessment reports provided by Cefas and Marine Scotland. In the dataset, the first
column “ICES” identifies those stocks that originate from the ICES stock assessment database
with the entry “Y”. The SPiCT_Stock data2_281117.csv contains ICES stock assessment model
outputs. SPiCT refers to 'Stochastic Production model in Continuous Time', the model used to
produce outputs for data limited stocks. These data were not released online by ICES when this
data were collated (12/09/2017), but instead downloaded directly by `www.stockassessment.org`_
(Casper Berg, DTU-Aqua) to Cefas on 08 June 2016. The
ICES_fish_stock_and_shellfish_stock_assessment_data_2017_column_descriptions.txt file contains
column header descriptions. This indicator summarises stock assessment advice for quota fish
stocks and national shellfish stocks. The input data for quota fish stocks arise from the ICES
stock assessment database http://standardgraphs.ices.dk/stockList.aspx, while the data for
national shellfish stocks arise from Marine Scotland and Cefas assessments, where data are
